Hi there, thanks for reaching out! The enrich from profile enrichment only scrapes profile data, but to pull the latest activity date you can use the Find Recent Posts enrichment to retrieve up to the past 10 LinkedIn posts from a profile. You can also use the LinkedIn Activity Extractor from Phantombuster as an enrichment column. Please note that Phantombuster uses your LinkedIn profile cookies, so be careful to not use this enrichment on more than 80 profiles/day in order to prevent your LinkedIn account from getting banned! Let me know which one you end up using and how the results work for you :)
Thank you Tanvi R. this is awesome, but I am interested to know not only posting but also likes and comments You see currently not a single platform offer this information and that would be huge because it would help us to target people that are actually active on Linkedin A lot of people do not post on Linkedin
Got it Mladen, in that case I would use RapidAPI's Real-time LinkedIn Scraper API and connect this to your Clay table via HTTP API. This RapidAPI scraper scrapes a profile's reactions and comments in addition to posts which is what you are looking for. Here's how to connect an HTTP API column. Give this a try and let us know if you need any assistance with your set up!
Mladen J. there is a rapid api that helps you find the last activity date when you pass it a linkedin URL
Tanvi R. Can I get a bit help? Not sure which part is not properly setup https://app.clay.com/workspaces/12283/workbooks/wb_RjR7YPq78yBD/tables/t_XqsQqEBVCJgn/views/gv_PXmpJab6zCJ4
Thanks for reaching out. It looks like the issue was that the URL didn’t include HTTPS, but I’ve fixed that for you. I also added the Username in the query and linked the LinkedIn URL. However, we’re now seeing a 401 error from the API with the message: "Invalid API key. Go to https://docs.rapidapi.com/docs/keys for more info." Could you please double-check your API key to make sure it’s correct? Let me know if you need further assistance! 🚀 https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1230046222/81c2ef9ebefb4da58c173b560bc2/CleanShot+2024-10-26+at+_00z2EA8KHa%402x.png?expires=1729980000&signature=eeda981761efe7246e6e0255cb63352e197d8d3878c2470adc4ba9727e9d0bf9&req=dSIkFsl6m4NdW%2FMW1HO4zQMFeYeayqRyjJxBbZjByG0H82mHhKoOWlZgyuH%2B%0A1Qva%0A
Hey Mladen! Thanks for the reply. Happy to help. I added your API key (you can delete this now) and got a 200 response from that endpoint. However, this cell doesn't show any results which indicates an issue with the current configuration. Is the highlighted option in the screenshot below the action you're trying to run? It looks like the current configuration in your table does not have the correct endpoint. I'm making a quick video to explain this further. https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1231491798/d86e4db3bedf997e78ba0ea331cf/CleanShot+2024-10-28+at+16_24_53%402x.png?expires=1730131200&signature=631c1b7b7f79eb8a63c3611809a3f720f82690976d1099fbb04b76166194572f&req=dSIkF813nIZWUfMW1HO4zVE9WqaMxGP5krM24BfeGyeDZx8x%2B6yIX%2F8hHcVP%0ADo4L%0A https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/w28k1kwz/1231488576/5dec8bb24452e6663ea3ad22f480/CleanShot+2024-10-28+at+16_22_54%402x.png?expires=1730131200&signature=4c630561cf9b74e18a6d20e341a1fe8eda578d16c589b52a0f69aa135c1b32ee&req=dSIkF812lYRYX%2FMW1HO4zaIPRi7gExvOC%2BEam7XpMlJdbIx48On%2BvsuoQ40j%0Az8Kz%0A
Hey Mladen! Here's a quick video showing how I updated your HTTP API configuration: https://www.loom.com/share/810638a04a2b425a9f3247e68d601037 Let me know if this helps!
